PRODUCT SAFETY
GENERAL POWER TOOL
SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING Read all safety warnings,
instructions, illustrations and
specifications provided with this power
tool. Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers
to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in
explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases
or dust. Power tools create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders
away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2) Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the
outlet. Never modify the plug in
any way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets
will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock
if your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or
wet conditions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use
the cord for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the power tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool
outdoors, use an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp
location is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected
supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
3) Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are
doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use a
power tool while you are tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
A moment of inattention while operating
power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off-position before
connecting to power source and/or battery
pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger on
the switch or energising power tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key left attached to a rotating
part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper
footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair
and clothing away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the
connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related
4
Cordless Li-Ion handy saw WG894E WG894E.X
hazards.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from
frequent use of tools allow you to
become complacent and ignore tool
safety principles. A careless action can
cause severe injury within a fraction of a
second.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use
the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the
switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or remove the battery
pack, if detachable, from the power
tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the
reach of children and do not allow
persons unfamiliar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools and
accessories. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have
the power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces
dry, clean and free from oil and
grease. Slippery handles and grasping
surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
5) Battery tool use and care
a) Recharge only with the charger
specified by the manufacturer. A
charger that is suitable for one type of
battery pack may create a risk of fire when
used with another battery pack.
b) Use power tools only with
specifically designated battery packs.
Use of any other battery packs may create
a risk of injury and fire.
c) When battery pack is not in use, keep
it away from other metal objects, like
paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws
or other small metal objects, that can
make a connection from one terminal
to another. Shorting the battery terminals
together may cause burns or a fire.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may
be ejected from the battery; avoid
contact. If contact accidentally occurs,
flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes,
additionally seek medical help. Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
e) Do not use a battery pack or tool
that is damaged or modified. Damaged
or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire,
explosion or risk of injury.
f) Do not expose a battery pack or tool
to fire or excessive temperature.
Exposure to fire or temperature above 130
°C may cause explosion.
g) Follow all charging instructions and
do not charge the battery pack or
tool outside the temperature range
specified in the instructions. Charging
improperly or at temperatures outside the
specified range may damage the battery
and increase the risk of fire.
6) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by
a qualified repair person using only

The declared vibration total value and the declared noise emission value may also be used in a
preliminary assessment of exposure.
WARNING! The vibration and noise emissions during actual use of the power tool can
differ from the declared value depending on the ways in which the tool is used especially
what kind of workpiece is processed dependant on the following examples and other variations
on how the tool is used:
How the tool is used and the materials being cut or drilled.
The tool being in good condition and well maintained.
The use of the correct accessory for the tool and ensuring it is sharp and in good condition.
The tightness of the grip on the handles and if any anti vibration and noise accessories are used.
And the tool is being used as intended by its design and these instructions.
This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its use is not adequately
managed.
WARNING: To be accurate, an estimation of exposure level in the actual conditions of use
should also take account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool
is switched off and when it is running idle but not actually doing the job. This may significantly
reduce the exposure level over the total working period.
Helping to minimise your vibration and noise exposure risk.
Always use sharp chisels, drills and blades.
Maintain this tool in accordance with these instructions and keep well lubricated (where
appropriate).
If the tool is to be used regularly then invest in anti vibration and noise accessories.

GENERAL CUTTING (See Fig. F1, F2)
NOTE:
1. Always use a blade suited to the material
and material thickness to be cut. The quality
of cut will improve as the number of blade
teeth increase.
2. Always ensure the workpiece is firmly held
or clamped to prevent movement. Support
large panels close to the cut line. Any
movement of the material may affect the
quality of the cut.
3. The blade cuts on the upward stroke and
may chip the uppermost surface or edges
of your work piece when cutting, ensure
your uppermost surface is a non-visible
surface when your work is finished.
OPERATION:
1. Mark the line of cut, clearly before your
cutting.
2. Do not force the tool. Place the steel base
(9) firmly on the workpiece while cutting.
Use only enough steady pressure on the
blade to keep the saw cutting.
3. Reduce the pressure as the blade comes to
the end of the cut.
4. Allow the saw to come to a complete stop
when before removing the blade from the
workpiece.
TREE TRIMMING
Use wood blade when cutting tree branches.
Hold steel base firmly against tree brance.
Cut close to the branch of the tree to decrease
movement of the branch being cut.
METAL CUTTING
Use a finer tooth blade for ferrous metals and
a coarse tooth blade for non-ferrous metals.
When cutting thin sheet metals always clamp
steel on both sides of the sheet to reduce
vibration or tearing of the sheet metal. Do not
force the cutting blade when cutting thin metal
or sheet steel as they are harder materials and
will take longer to cut. Excessive blade force
may reduce the life of the blade or damage
the motor. To reduce heat during metal cutting,
add a little lubricant along the cutting line.
